Thinking Of You

The title tells it all.... please comment. You might like it.
Every time I think of you,
I see you in a war,
across the ocean,
away from my embrace.

But of when I see you there,
I remember what they show us on the news,
bombs going off,
bullets looking for flesh,
this makes me cry.

Every time I think of you,
I see you here with me,
by my side,
holding me in your arms,
never wanting to let go of me,
I never want you to.

Thinking of this makes me miss you so much more,
and cry so much more,
But I still just smile,
I still say I love you,
even though you aren't by my side,
even though it hurts when I hold back my tears.
